Giddy up ladies and gents, and get ready for A Cowboy Carter Christmas. That’s right y’all, Beyoncé will be headlining the halftime performance during the Christmas Day NFL game between the Ravens and Texans on December 25 in Houston, TX.

Teasing the performance with a 30-second clip, Bey — dressed in an all-white ensemble including a fuzzy over-sized cowboy hat, furry coat and boots — is seen stepping onto a faux-snowy set to hang a football ornament on a locationally appropriate cactus instead of an expected Christmas tree.
The lights strung around the towering succulent magically turn on, the superstar holds up finger guns, blows invisible smoke off the barrel and winks, smiles, and then walks out of a frame.
The quick clip ends with a title card that reads, “HALFTIME SHOW THIS CHRISTMAS HOUSTON, TX.” Followed by graphic sharing the who, when, where, and how to watch, which will get to in just a bit.
The gig, which the NFL first announced mid-November, will air live on Netflix, and will mark Beyoncé's first time performing songs from her latest album, Cowboy Carter. A real football full circle moment for the singer, who first announced the album during a surprise Super Bowl commercial in February and set forth the project’s first two singles, "16 Carriages" and "Texas Hold ‘Em.”
The Christmas Day doubleheader will begin with the Kansas City Chiefs facing off against the Pittsburgh Steelers at 1PM ET, followed by the Texans vs. Ravens game which will begin at 4:30PM ET. Both games, and Bey’s halftime performance will stream live on Netflix, with regional broadcasts and mobile access via NFL+.
